ANDERSON, S.C. - Anderson freshman JT Trujillo's stellar performance on the mound helped lead the Trojan baseball team to a 4-3 South Atlantic Conference win past Newberry Friday night at Anderson Memorial Stadium.

Anderson (13-30, 6-16 SAC) won its third consecutive contest, while Newberry fell to 15-25 overall and 9-13 in conference play.

Trujillo (3-4), a right-hander, scattered six hits and gave up three runs in 7 2/3 innings of work. He struck out four and issued just one walk. Fellow freshman Landon Beck worked 1 1/3 innings and struck out two, earning his second save of the season.

Senior Blake May was 2-for-3 with a pair of singles and a walk, and scored once, while Shawn Delmontagne and Thomas Padro each posted singles. Brett Cash added a double and scored in the third inning.

Newberry scored in the top of the first inning to take a quick 1-0 lead, but the Trojans answered with a pair of runs in the bottom of the third to take a lead they would not relinquish. Padro notched a one-out single to center and Cash followed with his seventh double of the season - a shot to left-center - and both runners scored with two outs.

Anderson boosted its lead to 4-1 in the seventh inning, while sending eight batters to the plate and scoring twice with two out. May followed Zach Reeves' two-out walk with a single up the middle and Reeves crossed the plate on Erick Sanderson's single through the left side. May crossed the plate with what turned out to be the winning run when Delmontagne was hit by an errant pitch with the bases loaded.

The Wolves capitalized on a Trojan miscue to plate two unearned runs in the top of the eighth and had the tying run on second with two outs, but Beck recorded his first strikeout of the night to close the inning and retired the Wolves in order in the ninth to earn the save.

The Trojans and Wolves will wrap up their three-game series Saturday afternoon at Memorial Stadium. First-pitch is slated for 1 p.m.
